Research carried out by Google engineers and academics from the University of California, Berkeley and the International Computer Science Institute has revealed that phishing attacks pose a more significant threat to users losing access to their Google accounts when compared to keyloggers or password reuse.

Advances in artificial intelligence are coming fast and furious these days, and one of the most impressive is an AI bot created by Nvidia researchers that can generate images of random and extremely realistic human faces.

Rutgers engineers have created a new type of user authentication system that relies on transmitting vibrations through a surface and having the user touch the surface to generate a unique signature. This signature is then used to approve or deny a user access to an app, room, or building.

unCAPTCHA is the name of a new automated system designed by a team of four computer science experts from the University of Maryland (UM) that can break Google's reCAPTCHA challenges with an accuracy of 85%.

Scientists at MIT have developed a new tool called CodeCarbonCopy (CCC) that can automatically port code from one project to another, mapping differences and adapting the imported code to the new codebase.

A team of Oxford and Cambridge researchers is the latest to join a chorus of voices sounding the alarm on a new attack vector named Intra-Library Collusion (ILC) that could make identifying Android malware much harder in the upcoming future.

At a recently concluded security conference, experts from an Israeli university have presented new research that describes a possible attack scenario which leverages replacement parts to carry out attacks on smartphones and other smart devices.

A flaw buried deep in the hearts of all modern cars allows an attacker with local or even remote access to a vehicle to shut down various components, including safety systems such as airbags, brakes, parking sensors, and others.

The team at Dashlane — a password manager app — has analyzed the password policies of 40 popular online services and has discovered that not all websites are alike when it comes to password security, but some are worse than others.

Just like water leaks from pipes, so do electric signals from USB ports, indirectly exposing sensitive data to a knowledgeable attacker, according to new research from scientists at the University of Adelaide in Australia.

Research presented yesterday at the Black Hat USA 2017 security conference revealed that Bitcoin trading platform BTC-e is responsible for cashing out 95% of all ransomware payments made since the start of 2014.
